Today, instead of the traditional conference in LA at E3, Nintendo opted to have a live “Nintendo Direct” presentation, which was given by Satoru Iwata. It featured trailers for many new games, including Pokemon X and Y & Mario Kart 8. However, what most people were interested in was the trailer for the next Super Smash Bros game. Two characters were announced for the game: From Animal Crossing, we have the Villager, and from Megaman…we have Megaman!

It occurred to me that Nintendo may have hidden a secret in the videos, so I kept my eye out. Having looked through them, I noticed something in the background of the Mega Man video.

Can’t see it? Let me zoom in

Behind Link’s head, I noticed a small…thing. Now later in this scene, when Megaman engages the characters (pre-rendered cutscene, not gameplay), we only see him fight Mario, Link, DK & Kirby. Nothing else. Now this…thing…could be nothing. It could be an existing character, like Bowser. However, judging from perspective this item seems to be smaller than Kirby, so it’s doubtful. It the trailer it appears to move slightly, so I don’t think it’s a rock.
Can you see what character it is? Comment below. Think it’s a rock? Tell me!

–Rob, Editor-In-Chief.

EDIT: In a…bizarre move, Nintendo have announced that the Female WiiFit trainer will also be a character…right…

Hey! My name’s Rob, aka theCircleGuy! I’m a guy who loves the Beatles, so much so that sometimes it seems like I’m crazy. I have more to say, but not now- the owls are listening. I’ve been told I have to note that I’m from Ireland, which is not in Britain. Shame, shame on you… geography teachers…

I thought I was the only one who noticed this! It sort of looked like a small mecha bowser thing to me, like from the Mario party games. I hope it wasn’t just a rock or background item- it was too obviously placed to be nothing, right?
